IIdiopathic T-CD4 lymphocytopenia (ICL) is a rare heterogeneous syndrome characterized by opportunistic infections due to reduced CD4 T lymphocytes (<300 cells/uL or <20% of cells) in the absence HIV infection and other primary causes lymphopenia. Molecular testing ICL has revealed defects genes not specific T-cells, with pleiotropic effects on cell types. Here we report for first time an absolute (<0.01 CD4+ T-cells/µL) autosomic recessive gene mutation that completely abrogates protein...
Abstract Background Chronic urticaria (CU) is defined as recurrent lasting for more than 6 weeks. Objectives We aimed to characterize the phenotypes of patients with CU refractory standard dose anti-H1 antihistamine treatment and search clinical predictors poor disease control. Methods Retrospective collection data regarding characteristics, comorbidities, treatment, control all adult presenting Allergy Immunology Department during 1 year. Results Sixty-one were included, 74% females,...
